When There Is Nothing Left But Love

It took me by surprise as I thought he was going to kiss me.

Instinctively, I shrank back and stammered, “Ashton, there are people outside…”

Far from what I imagined, he took the seatbelt from the other side and strapped me in. He smirked at me with his eyes gleaming. “What were you thinking?”

I…misunderstood the situation!

I did not expect him to be reaching for my seatbelt.

I forced a smile before turning my head to look outside the window.

Unexpectedly, I felt a warm touch on my fingertips, and the warmth started spreading through my body. Surprised, I look down to see Ashton holding my fingertips with one hand while driving with another.

Sensing my gaze, he brought my hand up to his lips and kissed it. “Apart from pork, grilled fish and noodles, is there anything else you want to eat?”

My heart raced. It was rare to share such warm and peaceful moments with him. As my face started to flush, I could only think about the warmth that lingered on my fingertips after he kissed them.

I retracted my hand and voiced out, “I can eat anything!” Any food would sound good to me at this point.

His deep laughter sounded through the car. Anyone could tell that Ashton was in a good mood today.

When we arrived back at the villa, Ashton opened the door and helped me out of the car before I could even open the door for myself.

“I can walk on my own!” I was not that delicate that I had to be carried in and out of the car.

“Come here!” He demanded. Domineeringly, he picked me up and headed into the villa.
